Hand gesture recognition with forearm sensors
This study tests a new system that recognizes hand gestures using sensors on your forearm. It may help improve how we interact with computers and could lead to better assistive technology.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a healthy, right-handed adult between 18 and 65 years old.
- Your body mass index (BMI) must be under 30.
- Your forearm must be small enough (less than 15 cm around at its narrowest point).
- You must agree to shave or trim your right forearm for the study.
- You must not have any known movement problems in your right arm or hand.
- You must not have any active medical implants or allergies to electrode materials.

This study tests how well a prosthetic touch system can give realistic sensory feedback. It aims to improve how prosthetic users feel touch and movement, based on controlled testing in volunteers.
This study tests a small implant that records signals from your forearm muscles in people with a specific type of arm amputation. It aims to help improve how well prosthetic hands can be controlled using muscle activity.
This study tests a new way to connect nerve signals from your amputated arm to a prosthetic hand, which may help you control it more naturally and feel what the hand is touching.
This study tests a special implanted system meant to help control a hand using nerve signals. It is for adult arm/hand amputees and may help improve hand/arm control and reduce pain impacts.
This trial tests a small implant that reads muscle signals to help you control a prosthetic hand more naturally. You may qualify if you have a missing hand or arm below the elbow and currently use or could use a myoelectric (muscle-signal) prosthetic.
This trial tests a soft robotic glove that helps you grip and hold objects if your hand is weak due to a nerve problem or injury. It's meant for people who have trouble with daily tasks like eating or dressing.
